I call this my bay window.
It’s a window, and that most definitely is the bay in the distance…lathered in clouds and a beautiful Friday night sunset.
‘Nite.

Remembering my late father Abdon Perez, Sr.
and celebrating my beautiful mother Emma C. Perez today…on what would have been their 60th wedding anniversary.
True love is everlasting.
Until we meet again, Bobum. ❤️‍🩹

All week I’m teaching students with moderate/severe diagnoses.
Most of them are
non-verbal with autism. They communicate in different ways.
This is an example of one student’s brilliance.
She’s a kindergartener with a talent for Play-Doh creations.
All handmade…all from
her beautiful imagination.

“Girls Rule the World”
These girls just finished a weekend of firefighter empowerment boot camp.

It’s been a productive spring break.
Settling in to my new home and doing more unpacking.
This is the last gift my father and mother gave me together before he passed away in 2012.

The eagle has always been my spirit animal.

I had the painting in storage and now found the perfect place for it. ❤️

I had enough of the discrimination and overwhelming harassment.

I am a survivor of a toxic workplace.

It has been a painful, beautiful, life-giving journey.
Every step worth it.
Every step brought me to this place now.

Si Se Puede.

I am so proud of my youngest nephews.
Both AJ and Luke are now licensed drivers in the state of Texas...
…with their own set of “wheels”.
It’s official, Uncle M.G. is old.
It was just yesterday, they were my baby boys. 😢❤️
